How long should it take a minor growth plate fracture(back left rear) to heal?? Our vet has prescribed 4 1/2 weeks on "crate" rest, and no casting. She is 3 1/2 weeks into it, with great results so far.. Although today she darted out of her crate and jumped on the hurt leg, held it up for a minute or two (no crying) then seemed fine... Do you think she may have re-injured it, or that it is just sore? (she has been walking to go potty and that's it!) Should we re xray? Also, does not casting it, and the time frame they have given us seem reasonable?
